Went to see how the food was as a m not into beer which is their specialty and I understand they have some good local brews. I had their special ( bierocks) with their fresh cut fries and a side of fried pickle spears. The bierock was good and tasty for me the meat could have had a little more seasoning but I understand it needs to fit all palates. A little pepper got it my taste lol. Fresh cut fries were good and the fried pickles were good. Wished they had a half order since I got it with my meal lol. The staff was awesome Key and Jessie made sure I never ran low on my drink and kept up with all the beers needing drawn. They have plenty of TVs and a large dance floor which I'm going to guess gets busy over the weekends. I'm going to enjoy going back read more

My friends and I went in on a Saturday afternoon(8/16)to try out the New BBQ-we all wanted to try the Rib Tips which comes with a side. They also had Summer Cocktails, some domestic beer in tap such as Coors Light and Blue Moon if you're not into Brewery Beer. The Rib Tips were about a 3.5 if I was rating them 1-5. A little tough and fatty, the bbq sauce was good which I believe the cook makes himself. We loved the fries, they were kind of like shoestring fries, they were light and crispy. You order the BBQ up at their kitchen window and they give you a pager for when your food is ready. It's separate from ordering your drinks but they can merge it once you have a tab with the bar. They set up a few lounge areas by the kitchen window area, and they have a dance floor with high top tables chairs for when they do country line dancing and/or have bands. Overall a fun atmosphere that doggies are welcome to attend. read more

The Happy Basset Barrel House is great for a large group. They also do have lots of events. I will say, I do not recommend the bingo days. The caller is loud, aggressive, and vulgar. She screams into a microphone, when there are two loud speakers, so screaming isn't necessary. While calling numbers she also yells out other numbers that leads to confusion. I understand that this bingo is free, but it's not fun. Bingo and free events are fantastic, the current caller is not. read more

Poor breakfast bar, no help, anytime you ask for a solution the help gave mean face. For the price go else where. Stick to beer

If you are looking for a great bar in the local Topeka area to hang out with friends, this is the place for you. The staff is amazing! Friendly, knowledgeable, and innovative. Not only were they able to serve our table of 10 the drink of their choice but they were able to create a non alcoholic drink me on the spot. I enjoyed my time there. A plus is you can bring your dog! read more

Welp, I've never seen a hundred middle-aged white folks dancing to Poison until I walked into this unorthodox establishment, so there's that... We arrived while an 80s cover band was playing, but it was mostly hair metal, not 80s pop, and the crowd was loud and boisterous. We slid into some empty stools at the end of a communal table, but a couple came from the dance floor after a rousing rendition of "Fight for Your Right" and asked us to give them up; apparently they'd called dibs but left nothing there to indicate such. We waited for a couple seats to open up at the bar, and struggled to communicate with the bartender over the loud music. A few folks near the door and on the patio had brought dogs, but I wouldn't recommend it on 80s night; it's not exactly a laid-back vibe. Beer was okay, the place was understaffed, and the bartenders were uninterested in helping us. I'm not interested in going back. read more

Happy Basset Brewing is one of the best dog friendly breweries I have ever been too. Besides the outdoor fenced in dog area which encloses the outside patio deck and a fireplace but don't forget about the corn hole game. The Owner and staff are extremely helpful and friendly too. Make sure to save some appetite for Tim Miller's "Beyond Q" BBQ and other food samplings too. Everything was delicious, efficient, and "Happy"! Enjoy... read more

Great Sunday brunch buffet with a fantastic mimosa flight and great red beers. The company wasn't too bad either. We love supporting local so when dogs are allowed, it makes the whole experience even better. read more

This place was great! Dogs and beers what's better?!? Food was good. I'm not sure who enjoyed it more the pups for the humans!

Visited the location at 49th street, a bit off the beaten path. An eclectic building housing what feels like a randomly fun/cool event space along with a medium sized bar. There's a stage for live music and an outdoor patio/dog space. It sounds crazy but it's charming. The staff were astoundingly friendly and seemed happy to be there. Patrons varied from families to couples that brought their dogs to hang outside in the dog area. As to the food, BBQ was served by a couple and it was very good. Very nice owner/staff, definitely try the ends and the spicy sauce. Great price, far and away the best BBQ in Topeka. Finally, there must have had 20 beers on tap. Not sure how they swing that in a smaller town, but everything I tried on tap was fresh. Many good options, the three I had varied from great to good. I had to take a growler home in the end, so I think that says something. Will be happy to visit again. read more

we almost left. we sat at the bar in front of the bartenders for 8 minutes and were not acknowledged. Finally, one took our order as we were getting up to leave. Beer is good but customer service is disappointin. read more

Here for the evening in Topeka and had to stop by a brewery with a dog mascot! I came to the 29th location because it was closest to my hotel. Honestly the bartender was super sweet, I sat at the bar alone, and the beer was very good for an IPA. I especially love $5 pints! I only gave it 4 stars because it was a little underwhelming. Maybe the other location is where most of the amazing reviews are from?? read more

I would never go back to this establishment again! On our first visit we arrived at 7:10 pm to watch a local band. After we found some seats at a table and asked the people sitting at the table if we could sit there we ordered drinks. After we had been sitting there for 2 HOURS, the Manage came and told us we had to move. There was no other places to sit in the place. When I refused I was told that the table had been reserved, but there was nothing on the table to identify it as reserved. I later found out that all other reserved tables were told they had to be there by 7pm to keep the table reserved. We wer booted out of our seats. We demanded our cover charge back and will NEVER go there again. Is this how you treat your clients? if you are not one of the priveleged few you are not entitled to anything. read more

What a fun spot! I wish they did more with their logo, some of the shirts aren't really worth buying. The beers are, though! Came here after eating some lunch and was pleasantly surprised with the beer selection. One of the more interesting beers was out but the secondary choice was fun & funky as well. read more

If you are looking for some damn good bbq, check out the Happy Bassett Barrel House location (off of 49th). I tried this past weekend and was thoroughly impressed! I believe the full bbq menu is only offered on Saturdays as of now. Great locally brewed beer as well. read more

Stopped by while staying overnight while driving. Warehouse in the middle of nowhere with great draft beer, relaxed atmosphere and very friendly people.

This place was recommended by family, so we decided to give it a try. We're glad we did. * Welcome feeling - 4/5 * Service - 4/5 * Ambiance / Decor - 3.5/5 * Menu Selection - 4/5 * Cleanliness - 5/5 * Favorite thing - Local small business, easy to find, off street parking, comfortable setting, fair pricing, * Least favorite - the wait staff seemed brand new. Very plesent and accommodating. We felt she was left with little to no training... and she still did a great job. * Times visited - 1 (from out of town) * Would I go again? Absolutely read more

Horrible loud music. Couldn't hear the person next to me. I was excited because they are dog friendly, but my dog lost his mind when the LOUD music started. read more

Fantastic atmosphere! The beers are really good! This brewery is solidifying it's place in Topeka. They have everything from pale ales, NE IPA, AIPA, Weiss, brown ales, porters, etc... they are all really good. The environment is very clean with a kind of steampunk/rustic wood combination. They are pet friendly and the staff is really knowledgeable and nice. ASK ABOUT THE BEER OF THE MONTH! The growlers and Crowlers (AKA "Howlers") are very reasonably priced. The NE IPA is very floral and the Citra Pale Ale is top notch!!! I got crowlers of both before I left!! They also have beer and treats for dogs if they get thirsty while you're outside in the "patio" :) Absolutely love this place. read more

Played free bingo here on a Sunday (1-3pm), really enjoyed it! FAVE BEERS: Gracie strawberry blonde, Hoppy basset ipa, Slow rise saison Least but still ok: porter and belly rub (I do usually like dark beers) They have board games and such, which is always nice and some fun little snack foods. You can bring in outside foods, and they have food trucks thursday we were told. Uhg I don't have a puppy but I wish I did, they have puppy treats from spent hops and puppy beer. Bring your pups! Try it. You'll love it. read more

I love coming here, I literally come here at the smallest excuse. They are dog friendly so you can bring your furry friends! It is also a really good place to meet people. Their flagship location (29th St.) is the bomb.com and their new barrel house out on 49th St. is sooo much fun! The barrel house even has a dog park. They often have live music & events so it's never difficult to find something to do on a Friday or Saturday night or the weekend. Their beers are seriously something else, right now I'm obsessed with their Guava Dawg which is a smoothie beer brewed with marshmallows!! For real, this is the very first bar I went to when I turned 21 and was legal, I had my dad take me here & I have been obsessed ever since. I can't stop buying merch & asking for more stickers so I can represent them & anytime I want to go out and chill on a weeknight I drag my boyfriend and our dogs out. Love it seriously go out, try any of their beers, you can't go wrong with any of them. I've never had a bad Porter from them that I didn't like!!! Oh and I love how easy it is to take some beer home with their Crowlers! read more

Especially like the place on 49th street, big dog play area I think it is awesome to be able to bring your dog, even though I have none, anyway love the IPA and also the 785, lager is good also, really can't complain about any of the drinks, would like to see some snacks besides pretzels read more

Enjoyed ourselves very much tonight at this new microbrewery. The Hoppy Basset IPA was a favorite of the group. Quarters are a bit tight right now (35 max) and they don't offer food other than pretzels and snack mix. You can bring your own food in or have it delivered from Glory Days Pizza right around the corner. Spoke with owner and plans are to expand into vacant location, next door, in a couple of weeks. Thrilled to have a new microbrewery in town! Just need more of them. read more

I really like this place we go there regularly. The barrel house has weekly bands that play with no cover charge. This an awesome patio with tables and chairs and a free off leash dog park fenced in right off the back patio. The staff are very kind & helpful! Highly recommend. There beer is great & the snacks are good too. My favorite is the Cashmere popcorn which is made locally. This place support local & I am a huge supporter of shopping local. Enjoy! read more

This is an okay brewery at best. They market hard but the beers don't measure up on the pallet. I'm not an expert but I'd say the PH or acidity is way off. Smart location as the west "hoodies" think this is a great beer because it's in their backyard. Branch out~ read more

I'm more of a whiskey guy. But it is a good place to go with co workers and have some fun and relaxing conversations.

Super beer selection. Pleasant atmosphere. Friendly employees. Food truck that served awesome hot dogs...gourmet hot dogs! Beer was well attenuated, with a tremendous selection of IPA's and more. Prices were fair. We bought a crowley home with us of a lavender ale . In our search for all things beer related as we travel the USA we like to sample the best a City has to offer. I would put Happy Basset Brewing up there with some of the best beer we have tried. Food trucks right outside . Order, pay and it will be delivered unto you. Give them a try if you come to Topeka. We hear a second location is opening next year so they must be doing something right. Nice swag for sale too and local artists display works for sale. Cool place for young and old read more

Nice little watering hole. Staff is very friendly. They have a good selection of beers and other fine items. I had the sangria; very refreshing. My friend samples a few beers, I tried the pumpkin ale and it was really good. read more

It was a little difficult to find this little gem of a brewery, as I'm not from the Topeka area and I really wasn't expecting to find a brewery in a strip mall, but I'm glad we found it. The Hoppy Basset IPA is rent high. We also liked the Yellow Brick Blonde, it's a good choice for those making the leap to craft beers. Prices of their beers are very reasonable, especially for growlers. We really didn't have a lot of interaction with the staff and service was just okay. read more

Good beer, wish we could have had more. It wasn't busy or swamped, but we never got checked on past our first order of drinks (1 hr 20 minutes). We even had another person join our table and she never got waited on once. Waiter walked past our table multiple times where we had all our empty glasses on end of table and avoided eye contact/attempts to verbally get his attention.

Staff is soooo nice! Super friendly and they of course love dogs just like we do. They allow dogs on patio and bring water and treats! Inside was cool as you see all the brewery equipment etc. i had the Hoppy basset and Gatsby IPA. Both were good but i preferred the Hoppy Basset. No food but you can order in whatever you want and food trucks come once in a while as well. The only thing i wish they had was a larger patio and in the sun w a view as all you see are cars parked right in front of you. We will definitely come back! read more

New brewery in Topeka. Nice atmosphere. I'm not really a beer fan, so why a brewery you might ask? I went with friends. I did try their Cranberry Tartberry and liked it. But, they also serve other drinks, not just beer. What I really liked was the Bloody Mary - my preferred drink of choice. As mentioned, they don't serve food but pretzels. There are places nearby, my recommendation is Glory Days Pizza. read more

We finally stopped into this little joint after driving by it every so often these past 8 months. We regularly visit family in Topeka and our curiosity finally allowed us some free time to check them out. And yes, this brewery visit may have become a priority over family on this day, but we were glad we made time. The bartender was very polite and made beer suggestions based on our likes and dislikes. They have a solid range of flavors which is nice when everyone has different preferences. The atmosphere and environment was warm and inviting but it was decorated for the holidays so maybe not as warm post-holidays. When we have so time agaim, we will definitely check them out again! read more

Their IPA is as good as any in Portland, Denver etc. I'm a IPA snob and this is the place for me!
